Burials Esperance Funeral Services provide funeral service within the Shire of Esperance. Phone 9071 3245. Each grave has room for two interments, meaning two people can be buried in one plot. Ashes can also be interred under the plinth or at the foot of an existing grave. At the time of burial a concrete plinth is placed at the head of the grave to allow a monument to be erected at a later time. A plot or grave number is attached to the plinth which matches records held at the Shire. Records are available in the onsite information hut.
Reserved Plots Under the Cemeteries Act, a person is able to reserve a plot for themselves and/or their family for a period of 25 years. When reserving a plot, payment is required and a Grant of Right of Burial issued, confirming your right to that plot. The Right of Burial is issued in one name, however two people can be buried in that plot. If the grant holder passes away, a new Right of Burial is issued to the applicant.
